So there you are, waiting for your appointment. Sitting in a clinical white room. Staring at some old posters on the wall, about how to brush properly. Smelling that typical fluoride smell. Hearing children cry in other rooms. And then, a person, walks towards you, wearing that typical white outfit, with a white mask hanging under the chin, saying that you're NEXT......it's the dentist, aaaaarghhh!
A visit to the dentist might be less horrible, if you're living in Tokyo. In January a really really pink cute Dental Clinic opened in Koto-Ku (Tokyo), with a Hello Kitty theme. Everything looks cute. The walls and chairs are pink, the seats in the waiting room are...pink and heart-shaped. Even the sink has the shape of a heart. Unfortunately it isn't Hello Kitty herself who's treating patients. Her hands are a bit too fluffy and big to operate in your mouth. Anyway, 'the clinic uses the character as a way to make going to the dentist less nerve racking for patients, especially younger ones.' Hmmm, maybe a good idea for European dental clinics? No more crying children...and adults....
